Trip 100 – Wildflower Trip

28th August 2015 Trip Leaders Tony & Stella Weldon

Our group of seven vehicles assembled in Mundaring with trip leaders Tony and Stella Weldon. A leisurely 10am start saw us heading towards our lunch spot at Goomalling. We picnicked beside the disused railway station which was bathed in the bright sunshine which we enjoyed the whole weekend. Arriving at the caravan park in Dalwallinu at 2.30pm gave us plenty of time to set up camp. The Swifts arrived late in the afternoon to complete our party. We all enjoyed a very nice evening...

Calling for volunteers for Track Care

Calling for volunteers for Track Care’s major fundraising event of the year!

We have been doing a sausage sizzle at Bunnings Joondalup for two years now and raised well over $3,000. A considerable portion of the money raised has gone to purchasing materials for Rangeland’s projects (as DPaW’s funding has been very seriously reduced). This has meant we have continued with important Rangelands work where otherwise, nothing would have been done.

We need helpers to sizzle those sausages, fill orders and most importantly take the money!   J
